    I don't know if anyone's kept up on this thread, but I have found a source for repair; let's cross our fingers!

        Ancient thread, but so glad I stumbled across it. Bill, did you ever get it working? Took me ages, but I finally figured out how (gently) pry off the front bezel and then, after a lot of head scratching, managed to extricate the board.

        I have 4 of these monitors, and 2 have now died the same way (started out as intermittent power-up, finally won't fire at all) so if I can be sure of the way to fix it, I'll go for it, and know how to fix the others as they, inevitably, follow the same route!

        Hopefully you're still monitoring this board for messages/updates, as I can't seem to private message you, but I have sent a "friend request"

        Thanks for everyone's great suggestions so far!

          Well. It may please the other members of this post to note that I have run into the exact same problem. After receiving the monitor for free I quickly realized that it had no power LED showing - no backlight on the monitor. I took apart the silly thing - I hate that besel and clips with a passion. Running the correct power supply into it did not change a thing - and the voltage was shown to be running across the PCB perfectly fine. One slight difference. I think that I must have a different revision of the board - as one of the inductors (coils) surface mounted has been replaced with a different type of one - rather a smaller one.

          I am reasonably new to fixing stuff - having worked crudely with a soldering iron to take off components of junk circuit boards for fun - but I more broke than I fixed. Where should I start with this.

          There are no clearly leaky capacitors.
          The backside (topside if installed correctly) is covered with specks of what I assume to be housedust.
          The 30 or so pin ribbon cable has perfect continuity.
          I tested the continuity of some of the components using the south (as per the Original poster's image) end of the C530 resistor.

          Thank you in advance

          P.S - It was such a relief to instantly find this post, not being alone in fixing stuff is really amazing.

            Macbook Pro A1707 - Dead - Battery 'popped'
            by AdrenalinTL
            Hi Peeps.

            Just a quick question please as I am by no means an Apple fundi at all.

            Can a 'popped' battery cause the Macbook to be completely dead? Client said the battery definitely popped. It doesn't look swelled or anything but it doesn't switch on at all. No lights, no fans, nothing.

            Also, using a 85W original Apple charger. That is working for sure. Does it need more wattage?

            Don't want to go buy a battery for no reason.

            Client is adamant is worked before the battery popped and I can't see any damage what so ever on the board...

            How can I be sure that my EC chip is dead?
            by double_DD
            Hi all,

            As the title suggests, how can I be sure that my EC chip is really dead?

            I've recently gotten into this hobby of laptop repairs, and have successfully brought back to life a couple with some easy fixes, mostly shorted caps.

            Now I'm working on HP Probook 455 G8, that had some "devil" run around on 3V line, burning a bunch of stuff. Luckily I have a dead 455G7 (for spare parts) so I managed to fix it (swapped burned parts) to a point that it will charge (both on barrel jack and usb-c), but it doesn't want to turn on. There is a 3V3 on a keyboard...

            ps5 edm-033 dead after hdmi/usb ports destroyed
            by disorder
            hello guys,

            i need help to repair a edm-033 ps2
            history : as always hdmi port and usb ports destroyed after unplugged
            after change them, ps5 dead too : 1 beep, no blue light. after inspection 1.8v power was shorted, and because of dead panasonic chip. after remove it : no short anymore
            so i changed it
            now i have got 5v stby,, 3.3v stby, 3.3v power, 1.8v power and no short on them
            but the ps5 is dead again : 1 beep, near 10 seconds with power lines and then off, no blue light ...

            i don't see any projection of liquid metal on pcb.
            ...

            Finding a dead short component
            by Beton
            Hi guys!
            I searched for the term "dead short" in the forum but no specific thread came up however if I'm just blind and couldn't see the thread talking about this please forward me to that direction.
            So my problem is I don't know how to find the source of a dead shorted voltage rail. Dead short = ~0 ohm resistance.
            I have two VGAs (HD 4850 and HD 4870), both dead shorted to ground on the memory rail. I have the boardview file for the 4870 and the memory rail consists around ~7892346 capacitors...
            I have a bench PSU and if I try to inject voltage the voltage...
